Mobile App Educates Teens On Risky Sexual Behavior

“Seventeen Days,” a mobile app based on the interactive movie of the same name, will be available at no cost on iPhone, iPad and Android devices beginning June 4.

“Our goal is to create and make readily available a tool that will help teenagers make better decisions for themselves,” said Julie Downs, associate research professor of social and decision sciences who studies how social influences affect decision making and how people can make better decisions by understanding these influences.
